There’s an RFI<\/a> (request for information) out now for the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience<\/a> (the structure that cuts across different institutes that all support neuroscience: NINDS, NIMH, NEI, etc.). These RFIs are an opportunity to tell the NIH what you think they should spend money on. Specifically, they’d like to know about:<\/p>\n

\n
  • Identify areas of neuroscience research that could be accelerated by the development of specific research resources or tools.<\/li>\n
  • What are the major opportunities for, and impediments to, advancing neuroscience research?<\/li>\n
  • What are the 2-3 highest priority tools or resources needed to capitalize on the scientific opportunities and overcome obstacles to progress in neuroscience research?<\/li>\n
  • Describe how NIH Blueprint might best facilitate the development of these tools\/resources.<\/li>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    It’s not much money this year, but there are other activities ending in a few years so they anticipate more money being available and want to have their priorities thought out when that happens.<\/p>\n

    If you haven’t responded to an RFI before, it’s very simple. Just send an email to nihblueprint@nih.gov by Sept 9, 2011. All of the responses are anonymized and compiled for review.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
